December 31st is the time when the old year dies and the New Year is born. Many Americans have parties at home and invite all their friends. Many of these events are noisy. People shout and sing. They kiss their husbands and wives or the persons they are with. They dance to music. Other Americans spend a quiet evening at home. They drink champagne (香模)at midnight to celebrate the New Year.
Some people drink too much alcohol (酒)at New Year's Eve celebrations. This can lead to (导致)dangerous results if a person drinks too much and then drives a car. The National Safety Council says that hundreds of people die in road accidents during the holiday.
In recent years,the danger of accidents has resulted in a new tradition called the "designated (指定的)driver" ―one person among a group of friends drinks little or no alcohol during New Year's Eve celebrations. Then this designated driver can safely drive the other persons home. Free taxis take people home safely in many American cities on New Year's Eve.
Other Americans celebrate the coming of the New Year at events without alcohol. More than 220 American cities hold these First Night celebrations. Artists in Boston,Massachusetts started the tradition of First Night
celebrations in 1976. They wanted to celebrate the coming of a New Year,but they did not want to hold noisy drinking parties. So they organized music,art and other events at theatres or museums to celebrate the holiday.
